I had the good fortune recently to be hired, by a young film director of my acquaintance, to score his martial arts film.

Never having done a project like this, I relied mainly on my personal film scoring experience, which consists of the five or six imitations I recently did (posted elsewhere in this forum) of John Williams, Alan Silvestri, and a few other film composers.

Thus my score is heavily influenced by these composers--especially Williams and Silvestri--which I really like, but whether it's typical martial arts music or not is another question.

Here's the link to my score for one of the scenes, in which two antagonists meet, have a tense verbal interchange, and then come to blows.
